Villa Mihaela - Fazana

This was a return after 10+ years. Hotel is right on the harbor and patio is a comfortable place to ear and drink.The hotel is in the old city with plenty of restaurants and art galleries. Hotel is older and lacks an elevator, but staff will help you get luggage to your room. Hotel is in a pedestrian zone so you have to drive to the northern entry of the old city, go to the parking office and gain temporary access to the old city to drop your luggage. Hotel has parking just outside the pedestrian zone.Hotel has great breakfast buffet.

Very friendly and spacious room. All essentials were there minus room Internet and a microwave but it was relaxing.

our visit to Istria area got much better due to our stay in Hotel Mauro. Nice restaurant, great food, great breakfast, wonderful services. Hotel interior is modern, nice size bathroom, very new & clean. Convienient location for walk around Porec and drive around Istria. Parking right in front of hotel and it is free. It is a bit hard to find first because you need to access a secured car access gate. There are hotel call button by the gate, push the button, hotel will let you in. The only thing that the aircond is not very efficient, it stays around 24 the whole time. Good thing it is not too hot when we were there, not sure about summer.

The hotel is in a beautiful area. it is kind of dated but clearly management expands significant efforts to keep the property clean and inviting. We were on a full board plan. The food was reasonable, but nothing like a high level restaurant. You cannot go hungry though. What bothered us is our inability to get away from smokers either in the hotel (you cannot smoke inside but smoke drifts in from the outside through open doors) or at the beach (you can be surrounded by smokers at any time).

Porec Croatial was a fantastic place to visit. We loved the city, the restaurants, the people, and the surroundings. The hotel was a bit off the beaten path, but there were several ways to get to town that were cheap, quick, and convenient. The hotel staff was very helpful and the service was great. The hotel common area's were clean and well kept. The only downside to the hotel was that our room (standard double) was very small.
